I love my art. It has always been a part of me and I create it with passion. I grew up in Birmingham Michigan and vacationed in the Adirondack Mountains in the summers. It is in the mountains that I learned the freedom one could feel amidst nature. My work today reflects the memories of that time.

I have worked in many fields of art and have found that painting and working with other elements of nature is where my creativity expresses itself best. I received my formal art education at Cayuga College and Syracuse University. I have continued to study, explore and develop new techniques throughout my career.

For me, my art is about a spiritual connection to the earth and God. I like to think I pass some of this connection on to those that purchase my work. I presently work out of my St Petersburg, Florida studio.
